If you try to access Bing Mobile at m.bing.com, you will be presented with an error message. The error will read:

The page you want isn’t available

We’re working to restore service as soon as possible.

The server error code also returns a major error, specifically a 503 error code which means the service is unavailable.

Has Bing killed their m.bing.com domain? Bing.com works nicely on my iPhone, but that is the responsive design, which Bing may be migrating to completely? Why hasn’t Bing then redirected m.bing.com? Maybe it was an oversight?

The Bing Mobile 503 error just started recently. If you search for [Bing Mobile] in Google or Bing, both search engines return the m.bing.com URL in the top position:

bing-mobile

bing-mobile-bing

We have reached out to Microsoft for a comment on this.
